BenQ has launched the ScreenBar Max and iScreenBar in Australia, expanding its ScreenBar range with two lighting solutions designed for modern workspaces, including multi-monitor setups and Apple iMac environments.

The ScreenBar Max is designed for dual-monitor configurations, delivering more than 1,400lx of targeted illumination without taking up desk space.

Its ASYM-TriZone Light technology creates a controlled triangular light distribution designed for horizontal, vertical and curved multi-display setups, while a 36° shielding angle and integrated ambient backlight are intended to reduce contrast-related visual fatigue during extended use.

The iScreenBar is designed specifically for the iMac, with a CNC-machined aluminium alloy construction and metallic finish intended to complement Apple’s minimalist design.

A dedicated macOS application allows users to adjust brightness and colour temperature according to different applications, with the lighting able to adapt to the active workflow. The iScreenBar also features a video call mode designed to optimise facial illumination during virtual meetings.

“We have continually evolved the ScreenBar Series in response to how people interact with modern workspaces,” BenQ head of digital lifestyle products business unit JC Pan says.

“Our smart lighting philosophy is grounded in scientific research and real-world behavioural insights. As work environments become more dynamic, we remain focused on lighting solutions that enhance comfort and seamlessly integrate into the future of work.”
